Fashion Meets Comics: Kara Danvers (Supergirl)

In the beginning of the Supergirl episode The Bodyguard (season 5 episode 14), Kara Danvers, her sister Alexandra "Alex" and her friend and co-worker Nia Nal were at the Obsidian Platinum virtual pop up. As they were leaving, Alex's girlfriend Dr. Kelly Olsen arrived with a cute little bento box with food for Alex. So, while Kara was being adorably nosey and a little too interested in the dumplings that were in the box, she was wearing this really nice tie waist trench coat.

Art of the Day: Supergirl

Lately, I've been thinking of rewatching Supergirl. Now that Superman & Lois will be ending, I wonder if Supergirl will make a surprise appearance in the final season. That would so cool if she appeared even as a cameo.

Book of Interest: Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow

Although, I've heard mixed reviews about Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, I'm still very much interested in reading it. I like Supergirl, she's a really great character but I think that some writers don't know what to do with her. Which is why I want to read this because it'll be interesting to see how this story will showcase Supergirl.


Book: Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (issues #1-8) by Tom King and illustration by Bilquis Evely

Description:

Kara Zor-El has seen some epic adventures over the years, but she now finds her life without meaning or purpose. Here she is, a young woman who saw her planet destroyed and was sent to Earth to protect a baby cousin who ended up not needing her. What was it all for? Wherever she goes, people only see her through the lens of Superman’s fame.

Just when Supergirl thinks she’s had enough, everything changes. An alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission. Her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys responsible are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn’t help her, she’ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Now a Kryptonian, a dog, and an angry, heartbroken child head out into space on a journey that will shake them to their very core.

Supergirl 6th season returns "Meant to Be" Trailer

I can't believe the final episodes of Supergirl will be airing soon. The show will return after hiatus on Tuesday, August 24 on The CW. With Supergirl ending, I do hope some of the characters will appear on other Arrowverse shows. I would love to see Kara visiting her cousin Clark and his family in Smallville on Superman & Lois. It would be so cool to see the cousins working together again.

Fandom Friday: Random Fandom Thoughts #6


It's Friday, what fandom thoughts are on your mind?

- I have a friend who started watching 9-1-1 and he keeps asking me what season does Evan "Buck" Buckley and Edmundo "Eddie" Diaz get together. At first, I didn't have the heart to tell him they don't but I finally told him that so far those two are not together and probably never will. However, you would think that it should have happened at some point with the way the writing for these characters and how their friendship is depicted at times with a very intimate feel especially in comparison to the other friendships on the show.

Six Books I Want to Read this Year from my Bookshelf

I know my fellow bookworms can relate to having several or more older or backlog books on your bookcase or shelves that you haven't read. My goal this year is to read as many of them as I can because I want to complete my current To Be Read list in by 2022. And these six are books (which have been on my shelves for quite a while) I'm certainly going to read this year.

I'm so thankful my reader's block/slump is finally over and I'm able to go back to reading. You can expect my review for The Trouble with Hating You by Sajni Patel up tomorrow.



Book: Batman: The Long Halloween by Jeph Loeb with illustrations by Tim Sale

Description:

Christmas. St. Patrick's Day. Easter. As the calendar's days stack up, so do the bodies littered in the streets of Gotham City. A murderer is loose, killing only on holidays. The only man that can stop this fiend? The Dark Knight. In a mystery taking place during Batman's early days of crime fighting, Batman: The Long Halloween is one of the greatest Dark Knight stories ever told.

Working with District Attorney Harvey Dent and Lieutenant James Gordon, Batman races against the calendar as he tries to discover who Holiday is before he claims his next victim each month. A mystery that has the reader continually guessing the identity of the killer, this story also ties into the events that transform Harvey Dent into Batman's deadly enemy, Two-Face.

Book Club Picks for January: The Trouble with Hating You, Adventures of Supergirl and Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith

Happy New Year!

Goodbye 2020 and hello to a new year and new books. With the exception of January's book selections for Book Club which are a continuation of last month's picks. December was not a good reading month for me which is why I wanted to keep these picks for book club because I know they're good reads. I just didn't get a chance to read them.

The information about the book club picks below is from December 2020:

For The Book Girl's Book Club we will be reading The Trouble with Hating You by Sajni Patel, I figure we could read a bit of romance for the month. As for the Comic Book Club, I picked Adventures of Supergirl by Sterling Gates which are stories tied-in the Supergirl TV series. Last is the Star Wars Book Club where we will be reading Lost Tribe of the Sith by John Jackson Miller.


The Book Girl's Book Club


Book: The Trouble with Hating You by Sajni Patel

Description:

Liya Thakkar is a successful biochemical engineer, takeout enthusiast, and happily single woman. The moment she realizes her parents' latest dinner party is a setup with the man they want her to marry, she's out the back door in a flash. Imagine her surprise when the same guy shows up at her office a week later -- the new lawyer hired to save her struggling company. What's not surprising: he's not too thrilled to see her either after that humiliating fiasco.

Jay Shah looks good on paper...and off. Especially if you like that whole gorgeous, charming lawyer-in-a-good-suit thing. He's also infuriating. As their witty office banter turns into late-night chats, Liya starts to think he might be the one man who truly accepts her. But falling for each other means exposing their painful pasts. Will Liya keep running, or will she finally give love a real chance?
